In an interview with Sky News, Nicole Mowbray, member of both LGB Alliance Australia and the Lesbian Action Group, describes “the new homophobia” lesbians are experiencing, with major LGBTQ organisations expressing hostility to lesbians who want to participate in single-sex lesbian events.

Victoria’s new Pride Centre has rejected an application to hold a lesbian-only event at the Centre. The Lesbian Action Group, a group of lesbians from Melbourne and Central Victoria, have applied for an exemption from the Australian Human Rights Commission to hold a female-only lesbian event.
